Even when I change the batteries, when i tried to put on the camera by sliding the front lens cover, the usual display comes in the screen, stay for one or two secs. then went off.
I can not take a photo, even i am not been able to see the stored photos.
I replace the batteries with new set severel times but the problem remains.

I have the exact same problem. If you hold down your flash button as it powers on, you can run some diagnostics although with mine, it showed the CCD is not functioning. Pretty much that means you now own a paperweight. ...

My camera keeps saying my batteries are drained, even though they are brand new. I've done those with 5 pairs of batteries already and yet, it keeps saying their dead. Now it wont even take photos anymore. What's wrong with it?

Hello : \015\012\015\012Maybe you need to check the base where the batteries are set . It must be rusty or there's isolation stuff on it . You need to clean the base . If that didn't help , then I recommend you to take your CAM to a repai ...

Low Battery When turning the camera on, the screen often says "Low Battery", even if the batteries are brand new. The problems seems to last a few hours, then it turns on as normal. I have tried cleaning the contacts and the battery tubes, but nothing obvious seems to cause it, or solve it. Sometimes, it cuts out to "Low Battery" in the middle of taking photos, when the charge indicator on the screen has just been at full. Someone else asked this question on-line, but had no replies, and a frien

I went snorkeling with my olympus 780sw camera last weekend and was taking photos just fine. It was nearing the end of the battery life I believe and when i went to try to turn it on, nothing happened so I thought it had died(battery) I went to try and charge it, and the red light comes on, but it only flashes and does not stay solid, even after letting the battery sit in the charger for >5 hours. Is there a problem with my battery then? the charger? the camera and battery combined? any assistan

My camera won't power up with fresh batteries.
It died while I was taking photos. I thought the batteries were flat so put in new batteries (two different sets), but the camera wont turn on when the start button is pressed.

Try plugging your camera in via-usb into your computer. That's usually the most direct way to get power to your camera. If that doesn't work, check the battery door where you insert your batteries. It could be loose or closed incorrectly. If your cam ...

I have been having 2 problems with my Nikon D80. The first one has been going on for a while. It has been saying it a low battery even after charging the battery to full compacity. And buying a new battery. There for it won't let me shoot. For some time, after I turned it off and then back on it would work temporarily, but now that doesn't help
The second problem is when shooting on Manuel the F stop does't work, and looks like this, F---. So it won't let me take photos. As well as not

I have had the Nikon D40 for about 4 years. It has performed wonderfully and I love it. Just recently, the battery suddenly died (in one hour it went from 3 bars to one) and after several failed attempts to charge it, the camera would not allow me to take photos due to the battery needing recharging (flashing one bar). I ordered a new Nikon battery and put it in the charger when it arrived today. It registered that it was charging and after over an hour said it was completely charged. When

My canon 20d stopped taking photos for no aparant reason. Kept getting error 99 and when I re insert the battery it starts clicking on it's own whether turned on or not. I sent it to Canon repair who wanted to charge me more than it was worth to repair but that was before they even started to analyse the problem. I decided to buy a brand new 20d. Put in the battery and the CF card and exactly the same thing has happened. I can get the cameras to come on but when I press the buton the flash jumps

My camera will turn on and sometime it doesn't even when i put new batteries in it and i have cleaned the the battery parts and battery for good connection. I have to take the batteries out and put 'em in and it only sometime comes on.
it still didn't work but even if I put new batteries in it doesn't work just takine the batteries out and put 'em back in only makes it work randomly and the battery on the negative side seems lower than the other like they're unleveled. there wasnt any corrosio

If I understood correctly ..it a 2 batteries camera ...and the reason they are not leveled is cause at one point they was wrongly inserted and forced the cover door to close...and the contact blades inside just bended in on the side of the negative . ...

We just received our brand new canon t3i in the mail. We formatted the card (a 2GB 700X Professional High Speed Error Free (SD) Memory Card Class 10) and immediately started shooting to test out the camera. Everything seemed to work fine until we tried to apply a filter to one of the photos. The entire camera froze. We even tried turning the camera off and it would not shut off. We ended up having to take the battery out and put it back in. When we did and turned the camera back on we received a

I changed the batteries in my Power Shot A720 IS recently when the low battery warning flashed, and had taken only two photos when the warning flashed again. I moved the mode switch to playback and the screen went dark "Change batteries now" appeared. I turned off the camera, set the mode switch to shooting, turned the camera back on and was able to take two more photos before the low battery warning returned and prevented any more picture taking. I purchased and installed new batteries and f

Drained Batteries I am having a battery problem with my A75, which is my first digital camera. The camera has gone through 2 sets of brand new alkaline batteries since I've had it. I have taken only two photos. I've mostly only turned it on a few times to fool around with it and to try to learn the different functions. The most recent batteries where drained after sitting in the camera for two weeks and taking no photos. Basically, brand new batteries drained after two weeks of no use.
